When planning for online or hybrid instruction it's important to focus virtual time on hearing from students (rather than giving directions)! Sharing our thinking is a key component in science and opens up the conversation to all learners #NGSSchat #NGSS @NGSSphenomena
So believe this!!!! – at Cromwell, CT
There is not one good reason why an #elementary aged child should miss out on high quality #science instruction. Poverty isn't a reason. Missing skills isn't a reason. Math or reading scores aren't a reason. There. Is. Not. One. #ISaidWhatISaid #ScienceTwitter #EdLeader #NGSS

🥳Job Alert🥳 I'm looking for a part-time video and motion graphics producer to join the @FiveThirtyEight team! For now (as you might suspect) the role will mostly be focused on the 2020 election. Let me know if you have any questions. fivethirtyeight.com/features…

Jason Foster's #SciEd social justice unit on ENVIRONMENTAL RACISM involves a local investigation leading to political action. Ss do spatial inquiry of pollution sources, biochem analyses of impacts & evidence-based communication. #NGSSslowchat #NGSSchat nsta.org/blog/investigating-…

This is so wrong and misguided on so many levels! It saddens me after going through the Learning in Places Summit with so many WA teachers a couple of weeks ago! 🤦‍♀️😢 – at Cromwell, CT
I'm hearing accounts of WA districts stating that only math & ELA should be taught across K-5 this year. This will be an equity disaster in the name of equity. Are people seeing parents protest such narrow-minded attacks on children's intellectual health? xitter.cf/KRenaeP/status/1288994…

I purchased a shield from this company! juneauempire.com/news/read-m… I wear glasses that constantly fog up and I don’t want to deal with that for 6 plus hours a day when school resumes.
To any one else out there teaching with masks. Can you understand the kids. I’m struggling to hear them.
The Learning In Places Summit 2020 was inspiring and can’t wait to apply/share my learning! @CindyLKern – at Cromwell, CT

We just moved to Cincinnati. I am renting a place across the street from the on-ramp to HWY 71. And I have lightning bugs in my front yard. - Kris

Great points on language learning from @OkheeLee_ at #NSELA60. I love this @STEMTeachTools that talks about why we shouldn’t front load vocabulary for Ss stemteachingtools.org/brief/… – at Henderson, NV

Q2 Terry, PK-5 Science Coach. Didn’t want to lose our Annual Boat Regatta tradition, created a virtual event, students build their own out of recycled materials & had choice of criteria to focus on & Choice on how they shared through Seesaw platform #NGSSslowchat #NGSSchat
#NGSSslowchat began by sharing our anxieties about distance-learning so that we could open up the space for new learning (exemplifying- "the passion for stretching yourself & sticking to it= growth mindset" (CDweck) Here is Q2! #NGSSchat

A 2-year-old's brain develops rapidly, growing twice as many synapses as an adult—so it's important to expose them to rich, well-rounded activities as much as possible. edutopia.org/article/why-age…
